HORSE REPORTER

part 6

I finished work at the magazine and I ran to the pizza restaurant for my night shift from 5 to 10 it was crazy we had over 70 orders. People came with various huge orders but I was happy for them they seemed to enjoy it .I love watching clients with their families and friends it brings me joy.I love when they call me by my name I feel involved.
I know some of the clients they visit us every now and then and I kinda feel like they know me they ask me how am I doing and I kinda like it .
I memorize their ritual orders and they love it.
None of them knows that I'm a writer.
I usually don't share my story with people yet when Louis opened about his life to me yesterday I felt that he's safe to share things with.
After my shift I took off my apron.

My mobile rang I haven't been able to check it all day.
"Hello "I answered without checking the number not that I save any .
"Princess "Louis' voice broke with an apprehensive tone or that's what I just thought.
"Oh hey Louis how are you doing"
"Just having a minor panic attack CZ I have been texting for hours and you vanished like a ghost with nowhere to be found, "he said in a voice full of worry I laughed tugging a strand of my hair behind my ears.
"Don't worry Talented architect I told you I work part-time job 3 days a week at a pizza restaurant" I said taking a seat resting my back on the bench because I can't feel my feet I was so tired and I wanted to hit the hay an involuntary yawn escaped my mouth.
"Oh you must be tired as fuck "he said I was beyond tired
"Yeah don't ask...tired but happy" I added rubbing my eyes I walked down the street to my house.It was dark with the street bulbs illuminating limited areas in the gloomy street.
"Do you want me to pick you up "he asked.
"No man I am almost home "I said as I noticed the black car in front of my house I sighed as I knew who was that .....the royal guardian...I hate how they think I belong to them....
"Louis I am home I'll hit the hay cz I can't feel my feet gonna call you tomorrow okay "I said getting ready for a full investigation.
"Are you okay your voice changed? "he asked
"Yeah yeah It was just a long day" I answered
"Eat something before sleeping I bet you're starving "he said in caring yet reluctant tone but that was the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me it was past 10 already so I won't eat anything yet this was super cute.
"Okay Louis if you don't have any more instructions can I hang up "I joked half heartedly because I knew what was coming
"Okay princess good night have sweet dreams "he said I hanged up before him as the guardians got of their car I got my card to open the gates for me and them.
"Miss Hanks nice to meet you "one of them said I nodded with a witty smile.
"Let's not disturb your night but we have noticed that you've invited a male guest yesterday " his audacity bewildered me .
"AND ?"I asked
"This is a kind reminder that you have to take permission for any kind of love relationships and you can't invite a male to your house past 10 pm "he instructed a parent to a teenager.

"He is just a friend you don't need to worry and just a gentle reminder this house has nothing to do with the royal propaganda this is totally from my great grandfather work so you better keep yourself out of me ...my grandparents have already cut any earnings from their titles so you kindly stay out of my way and this is my house I shall invite whoever I want" furiously I hissed in a threatening tone.

"We both no you'll never get rid of us princess so you better be obedient "the guy in a black suit said with a stupid grin on his face as he got in his black car and vanished into the fog.
I was irritated I hate how they think they can dominate me like puppet in their hands I climbed to my room showered and fell to the bed as my heavy eyelid could no more Stay opened.

Next morning
My alarm rang waking me up tiredly I walked to the kitchen to brew my coffee ☕. Sobriety coaches is probably needed for someone who wakes up at 5 am and commutes to work butterflies were demonstrating a *we are starving* slogan in my guts I opened the fridge and grabbed a banana . I tossed my mobile and texted Louis
*Good morning Talented architect .Have a good day....sorry I had to hang up yesterday I was super tired anyways rock your sketches as you always do 😉😉 *
I smiled as I pressed send then loitering to the garden to check out my plants it took Me about 50 minutes to make sure that all the irrigation systs are working efficiently and check the flowers .
Then i went to have a warm shower as coldness already froze my bones, the pitterpatter of the shower ran down my body easing my muscle ache I was beyond tired from Yesterday's work my body wanted to rest yet I didn't have the leisure to such a luxury.
as I got out I jumped into my formal ensemble few things that I kept from the past .
Grey Pencil skirt and nude coloured blouse pairing them up with circled gold earrings and my mother's Guess watch. I put on my sneakers and pulled the heels into my backpack no one would like to run to the underground with heels 😂.lastly was my home made perfume ....a family ritual that I have kept ....we had a perfume company so of course I kept the recipes because I believe that I'll open the company again one day when I pay all our debts.
I walked solely to the underground it was already 8 am when I entered the office .
